We did. I felt the episode went by quickly yet didn't resolve much of anything. However, I loved the touching mother daughter moments.

Agreed. So how pissed/what actions do you think the brothers will take when they get to cabin and find Kate’s awful boyfriend? I mean I can’t imagine Rebecca will let them beat the crap outta him.

I loved the mother-daughter moments. It's been a long time coming for Rebecca and Kate. I am usually not team-Kate but her loving baby Jack for exactly who he is, and doing everything in her power to make the world open to him has me crying. Plus, Toby is being SUCH A MAN about Jack: he frames everything about the loss of his expectations. I can't. Kate's abusive boyfriend is frightening - but has he seen how big her brothers are?

It looked like Sophie in bed to me again.

I still think it's Madison in the bed.

I loved the mother/daughter bonding. It made me so sad knowing that they were finally at a good place and yet Rebecca's time is limited.

I think Kate is being a little harsh with Toby. He's entitled to his feelings too, and I imagine the reality of having a special needs baby is something that everyone handles differently. It's awesome to see Kate find her strength but Toby isn't there yet. Given his history of depression, it's not surprising either. She overreacted when he said he "wanted" to be that kind of husband and father, which seemed like an honest answer to me. And when he was excited about Jack seeing the lights and did a bunch of research, she was all over him about being realistic. He was pleading with her to let him have a little bit of hope for one night, and that wasn't ok with her. It just seems like she's trying to control everything as it relates to him.

Toby's idea of hope is hoping that his son isn't "less than" in Toby's eyes. Toby wants to watch movies with Jack? FUN FACT: blind people go to the movies, too. There's even a bit of the retreat when one of the speakers talks about narration for TV and movies.

I did think he might be starting to get on board when he wanted to take care of Jack for the weekend. But right now, his attitude irritates me.

So in the child Kate part of the story, when she is telling her dad the bedtime story, she says..."Do you want to know what the princess wanted?" and they don't answer the question but it cuts away to Rebecca and brothers driving to the cabin. Is that she wants to be saved by her mom or something else? I was thinking the "rescue" at the cabin could go poorly and make Kate spiral out more.."you don't trust me, I can handle myself, etc..."

They show her running out of the cave and into her mom’s arms.

It was Madison.

I liked the episode and I usually don’t like adult Kate’s character. But this was good. Teenage Kate in an abusive relationship is just so sad.

I loved last week’s episode but this week was a bit slow. There is more to what happened in the cabin that they should have aired- it is on a preview to next week. They’re really dragging it out. I wish they had given the full story of that relationship now

I thought Kate looked so cute in her bathing suit. That scene reminded me of the episode in Shrill with the pool party for fat girls, which I loved.

Adult Kate? What I noticed was that she has great legs! Who knew? She always wears long dressed when I see her photographed.

I couldn't tell but Madison was in California. She walked Audio.

Where was Kevin during that week? He flew to Pittsburgh to attend his ex-MIL's funeral. Did he fly back to California? Or is he still in Pittsburgh which would mean it's Sophie?
